In First Mate, a lone black and white cat perches peacefully in a turquoise boat pulled up on land in Portofino, Italy. This whimsical yet serene photograph by John Scanlan captures the quiet charm of the Italian Riviera, blending everyday life with striking coastal beauty.

Printed as a limited edition on gallery-wrapped canvas, aluminum, or archival fine art paper, each piece is produced with exceptional attention to quality and detail—ideal for collectors of travel-inspired fine art.

Behind the image: Portofino, Italy. "On the Italian Riviera, it seems as if almost everyone owns or operates a boat - even a cat.  While he may have just been looking for a sunny spot to perch himself, or for fish scraps left behind by his owner, the cat we found in an idle boat looked as if he could easily command it."
